Virgin TJ issues....

Sandbox Sailor:
When I did an oil change at Sears, I had them check the diff fluid. They didn't put the plug back in the rear correctly, and it fell out somewhere, and inevitably, I didn't find it until I was giving the underside a once over AFTER wheeling in ddep water. I took it back to Sears and they refilled the gear oil and put in a new plug. After time, I started hearing something like what you are explaining. I took it to the dealer (it was under warranty, obviously before I lifted it), and they said it looked like the rear diff was full of water, They fixed it under the warranty, but that is what caused my problem.

Gastank:
Thanks sandbox,
I understand how hard it is to diagnose a keyboard. I don't normally come here for that reason.... I am normally the one asked the questions. This one is different for some reason. Like I said before it grinds at low speed and whines at high. I'll check the Diff fluid. That was the other thing I was thinking. I have heard the whine just before a diff blows up, or when the backlash isn't set right. This doesn't sound the same. There is no difference when you make a turn, it shifts into 4h and 4l just fine. everything works as it should, with the exception of the "mystery noise"
Thanks for the help
